Answer:

30+48g

Explanation:

Do 6 x 5 (30)and then 6 x 8g (48g). You can't combine them because they are not the same terms, sorry if my explanation sucks.

Answer:

Orange rectangle: 30

Pink rectangle: 48g

Product: 48g + 30

Explanation:

We always want to distribute the factor outside the parenthesis to the terms inside:

  • 6(5 + 8g)
  • 6(5) + 6(8g)
  • 30 + 48g => combine the like terms: 6 and 8 in the 8g are like terms
  • 48g + 30
